There are micro crystals in Orbeez that absorb water, almost like a diaper. Before I go any further, some people may argue that Orbeez are living things because they grow, but they are not living, breathing life-forms. I know I haven't fully answered your question yet, but bare with me. Orbeez are made from super absorbent polymers that allow the small spheres the size of a sprinkle to grow up to 300 times its original size/volume. This method was originally used for agriculture purposes. You see, to absorb and hold water more efficently, farmers used some of the ingredients found in Orbeez on their crops. This is also why Orbeez can be planted in the ground where plants grow once your done. It helps save water, and grows plants more efficiently

Orbeez are small, water-absorbent polymer beads that expand in size when soaked in water. They are commonly used for sensory play, decoration, and as a substitute for soil in plant arrangements.
